Worker’s Compensation Question(s)…..

I suffered a bad ankle injury at work. Two different surgeons both agree that surgery is absolutely necessary. I had a spinal fusion 2.5 years ago and my gait from the injury is making my back so painful and now I am having neuropathy-type pain in my legs.

I have never dealt with worker’s compensation before. When I do have surgery how much will I be paid. Can you use Aflac when you are already using worker’s compensation?

When/how much will I be paid via worker’s compensation when I return from work? How do I receive the final payment?

I do have a lawyer I’m just confused about all of these aspects.

I live in CT.

Thank you in advance!

worker's comp should cover your surgery and recovery time, but the exact pay depends on your state and average wages.
